Dr. Josef Mengele is a german man who is called the angle of death.
He earned doctorates in anthropology from Munich University and in medicine from Frankfurt university. He initially gained notoriety for being one of the SS physicians who supervised the selection of arriving transports of prisoners, determining who was to be killed and who was to become a forced labor but is far more infamous for performing human experiments on camp inmates, including children, for which Mengele was called the "Angel of Death." Mengele himself repeatedly insisted that he had not committed any crime, and that instead he had become a victim of a great injustice: "I personally have not killed, injured or caused bodily harm to anyone".
